Ilvaite on Quartz (Ref: AX-15-286)
Huanggang Mine, Chifeng Prefecture, Hexigten Banner, Ulanhead League, Inner Mongolia Region, China
70mm x 49mm x 45mm
minID: A4H-5MP
The Inner Mongolian region finds in the past few years re-defined how we look at Ilvaite, these were huge news in the mineral world. This specimen is sharp and quite lustrous, the Ilvaite is undamaged and sits on greenish quartz needles (likely included by Hedenbergite). Very esthetic (for a black mineral, this is exceptional) the form is textbook and the contrast with the matrix is choice. These better pieces are world class for the specie and still very affordable, a good time to add a good example before these inevitably disappear. .From: Well-Arranged Molecules
